Everything I have read is that the regular fluid is best. But of course Ellis would know best.

Ellis says the Best stuff to use is Synthetic Dex 3, or the fluid of your Choice, but he has used the Costco stuff in my car.

I'm sure he will tell you more when he gets home because when I talked to him on the phone this board wouldn't come up, so I forgot everything he said

When I asked the Moser tech, he said synthetic with posi-lube is the best.....your choice of brand.

Yeah, Ellis told me to get the stuff at costco for my tranny, so that's what I went with. Plus $13/case....can't complain about that.

Hehe no more Mark bashing...he is getting old and it hurts!!!

The costco stuff is fine. I was told not to run Synthetic in my car.....40K miles ago so I did a full flush to Synthetics! Stock trans has 56k miles on it so far
